The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 354 Prelude (1)
"I don't know about this, I haven't compared it before." Xue Yaoxi replied dotingly, seeing Shen Xuan's eyes shining, how could she not guess her mind.

Since the two met, the two only knew that each other had good internal strength, but they had never fought.Now realizing the difference in force between the two, Shen Xuan was eager to try, but Xue Yaoxi didn't have this idea in his heart. How could he be willing to use force on Shen Xuan even if the woman in front of him was his beloved? I don't accept it either, what if I get hurt?

In the county government office of Jinghu County in the south of the Yangtze River, in the room where Prince Murong Qingfeng temporarily lives, a secret conversation is going on.

"Prince, I don't know what you want to come here?" Shen Chaoqiu asked after bowing his hands to the prince.

"I just got the news yesterday that the person who sent the letter back to the capital was killed on the way. The court doesn't even know about the situation here." Murong Qingfeng said in a low tone.

During the disaster relief period in the south of the Yangtze River, Shen Chaoqiu proposed many very good strategies, which made the disaster relief work less difficult.Because of Shen Chaoqiu's talent, coupled with Shen Xuan's reasons, he showed his face in front of the prince, and the prince also wanted to train him, so recently Shen Chaoqiu has become a celebrity in front of the prince and has received great attention.

"That is to say, there is no rescuer sent by the imperial court, but the food in the library is only enough for one day?" Shen Chaoqiu immediately added.

Murong Qingfeng has been paying attention to the situation in the warehouse, and now hearing Shen Chaoqiu's reminder again, he feels a little irritable.worry.At this time, Murong Qingfeng was not worried that he would be punished after this incident went wrong, but worried that the people would starve to death in the future.

The atmosphere in the room seemed rather depressing, Shen Chaoqiu raised his head and glanced secretly at the frowning Murong Qingfeng, thinking in his heart whether he should tell the prince about that matter.Not long after, Shen Chaoqiu made a decision, and then said, "Prince, I wrote a letter to my little sister not long ago, I wonder if I can receive it?"

After Shen Chaoqiu finished speaking, he lowered his head, thinking of what the prince said just now, that the people sent back to the capital were intercepted and killed halfway, he was also worried in his heart, wondering whether the secret guard Thirteen who sent the letter to the capital would go back alive.

"Really?" Hearing Shen Chaoqiu's report, Murong Qingchen asked in a slightly joyful tone with surprise in his eyes.

Seeing the prince's happy expression, Shen Chaoqiu reminded him, "Prince, this matter is indeed true, but the lower officials can't guarantee whether this person has sent the letter back to the capital, after all, as the prince said just now, someone is here Halfway intercepted..."

After Shen Chaoqiu's reminder.After pouring cold water, Murong Qingfeng calmed down, knowing that this matter depends on God's will.The two looked at each other speechlessly, and the room was suddenly quiet again.

"Prince, do you think we should go to the grain store to see?" Shen Chaoqiu said while looking at the prince's expression, and continued to analyze after seeing that the prince had no objection, "Although the grain merchants have formed an alliance behind their backs, they want to raise money by raising money." Food prices are used to earn money, but now is an extraordinary time, if we let them open warehouses for disaster relief in the name of the imperial court, would they still dare to resist the imperial court?"

"You are thinking too simply. Even if they are afraid of death at this time and open a warehouse to provide disaster relief, they will definitely unite together to resist again afterwards, and the situation will be even more difficult to deal with." Murong Qingchen replied, with a somewhat tone muffled.

"That's right, even though they are profiteers, even if they don't sell them, we can't snatch them by force, otherwise we will be ignorant." Shen Chaoqiu murmured.

There was a knock on the door, and a guard of the prince reported outside the door, "Prince, the yamen servant from the county government came to report just now, and someone at the gate of the county government is looking for editor Shen."

The two people in the room looked at each other when they heard the report from the guards outside. Shen Chaoqiu couldn't figure out who would come here to look for him. He didn't know anyone here at all?

"Okay, go and have a look first, don't reveal what you said just now." Murong Qingchen replied, signaling Shen Chaoqiu to go out.

Shen Chaoqiu saluted and resigned, left the room, and headed directly towards the gate of the county government office, wondering who was looking for him on the way.The journey was not far, and within a stick of incense, Shen Chaoqiu arrived at the gate of the county government. Not far away, he saw a middle-aged man and a servant beside him. And the situation of the carriage, we know that these two are not ordinary people.

"Excuse me, are you looking for editor Shen?" Shen Chaoqiu stepped forward, stood opposite the two, and asked in a calm tone.

"Master?" The middle-aged man looked at Shen Chaoqiu and asked in a puzzled tone.

"I'm editor Shen, I don't know who you are?" Shen Chaoqiu asked again after declaring his family name.

"Young Master is Shen Chaoqiu, Young Master Shen, so you must know Mrs. Shen Xuan and Miss Shen?" The middle-aged man asked excitedly. Although he had already confirmed Brother Qiu's identity in his heart, he still asked.

"Miss Shen Xuan you mentioned is the younger sister in the family. I don't know how you know the name of the younger sister? Could it be that you were sent by the younger sister?" Shen Chaoqiu asked in surprise.

"This is Hong An, the shopkeeper of Fuyuan Restaurant in the south of the Yangtze River. My boss sent me down to deliver the letter to Young Master Shen. The boss said that as long as Young Master Shen reads this letter, you will understand." The middle-aged man Hong An said. He took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Brother Qiu.

Shen Chaoqiu took it in doubt, opened the wax-sealed envelope, unfolded the letter, and read it quickly.The more Shen Chaoqiu looked at it, the more excited he became. It turned out that this letter was written by Xie Wuyou, the Xie Mansion in Fengyang City. It roughly meant that he had already made a deal with Shen Xuan, and he could provide them with food in private before the court's rescue arrived. Ask Shen Chaoqiu to send someone to follow Hong'an's shopkeeper to fetch food for disaster relief.

Shen Chaoqiu quickly browsed the two pages full of words. He raised his head to look at Hong An's shopkeeper, and asked excitedly, "Your boss is Brother Xie Wuyou from Xie Manor in Fengyang City? Brother Xie asked you to help?"

"Indeed." Shopkeeper Hong An replied with certainty, and after thinking about the current situation, he reminded a few words, "But Young Master Shen also knows that the grain merchants here are allied and there is a shortage of food. Our Fuyuan Restaurant can only Provide some privately, and there is nothing extra. For the development of our Xie Mansion in the south of the Yangtze River, please keep young master Shen on this matter, if other grain merchants find out, our Xie Mansion will definitely become the target of public criticism."

"Thank you for reminding Shopkeeper Hong, don't worry, I understand the seriousness of this matter, I will keep my mouth shut, and will not let unnecessary people know about it." Shen Chaoqiu assured.

Thinking that the people would not starve to death in the future, Shen Chaoqiu happily bowed his hands to the shopkeeper Hong An.bend over.He saluted to express his gratitude, "With food, the people will not starve to death. This matter is due to your treasurer Hongda. Although I am just a small editor in the court, I can't represent the court, but I can represent the people. , Thank you for your kind deed, and please pass on your thanks to Brother Xie."
